Kate Simerly

I have a passion for telling stories that both educate and entertain. As the daughter of a scientist and an artist it seemed only natural that I would choose a career that combined both.

My work in film and television has taken me across the globe, from directing an archaeology documentary in the remote Andes of Peru, to wildlife conservation projects in Asia and producing international docuseries for Travel and Discovery Channel networks. In every project I seek to craft narratives that are brimming with adventure, discovery and above all, heart.

I don't want to explain this whole life business through truth or science. There's so much mystery. There's so much awe.
